BAKERS NORTH YORKSHIRE. 



Several of the common Ericetal plants and of the frequent 

 Sylvestral plants of the dales seem to have disappeared from 

 this highly cultivated district. Of the Montane plants it has 

 only seven of the commoner species and these are almost, if not 

 quite, restricted to the calcareous undulations in the vicinity of 

 the Wharfe. In Xerophilous and Hygrophilous plants it 

 occupies an intermediate position amongst the districts, and 

 although it is much smaller than any of the others, yet for the 

 Rarer Ascending Species one district is below it.
